Travel / Re: Airfares Drop As Foreign Carriers Unblock Low-priced Tickets by Yankee101: 7:26pm On Mar 31
It’s still double
New York to London is6hrs 50min to 7 hrs flight and cost 450 to 500 dollars
Nigeria to London is about the same time but costs double that amount at the cheapest and almost triple on average
The FAAN needs to price costs according to international standards too. You don’t pay your handling workers as much as in developed countries but you like to charge higher for everything
Travel / Re: Airfares Drop As Foreign Carriers Unblock Low-priced Tickets by Yankee101: 7:17pm On Mar 31
It is still too high
A 6 hour flight should be about 500 dollars or 600 to 700k in a slow season and 1.6m naira to New York

People are not foolish or envious
Nnamdi Azikiwe and the SW begged Sardauna to join a one nigeria
Some of the big properties Bianca and Ojukwu’s children are fighting for is based on the north
I hope you inderstand the implication of the biggest losers of the country we’re divided today. Oil is now in Gombe, Lithium in Nasarawa and Kaduna, oil in Kogi, gold in Zamfara

Killerofpigs:
You are a TRUTHFUL person on this assertion. He was actually offered 5 SE States and he refused by making these submissions.

Who carved out the States ? Military men' who did not even understand the dynamics of the people in those regions.

IGBO speaking areas in the SE region are the requirements to secede. All IGBOs in Benue and in SS will follow BIAFRA. Communities that want to follow BIAFRA are welcome. That is why it's called a REFERENDUM.

Just like ILORIN will be reclaimed fully as an ODUA Nation enclave. grin

Oil has been proven to be the least of the requirements, because even without Oil the SE is the most urbanized region as recently proven.

So take that oyel narrative and throw it away

BIAFRA will be the bedrock of awakening and ODUA Republic will follow suit and even overtake BIAFRA if they do well. grin.

It's healthy competition, instead of foolish envious rants and actions grin

SE is just 28k sqkm
Borno state alone is twice that
You were offered igbo states to go but you refused
You’re the one who wants SS and middle belt to join you. You’re the one asking for unity
Killerofpigs:
Why not talk about

Human parts traffickers
Identity theft and fraud
Legitimized thuggery and touts
Prostitution and adultery

These are prevalent in the SW.. abi you pretended not to remember that abi?

The IGBOs want BIAFRA to leave you in peace. Support it, so that you can be free of them.

Can you... NEVER! cheesy

UNITY BEGGARS grin

Politics / Re: See The Most Built Up States In Nigeria. by Yankee101: 10:44pm On Mar 30
Or the states with the smallest land masses


Government situated buildings in some northern states like kaduna alone dwarf govt buildings in 3 states above combined (Air Force base, NDA 1, NDA New site, 1 Mech Division, etc)

And have a bigger land mass. Compare per unit area to get the true measurements. Compare onions with onions

Senators Hunkuyi and Shehu sani tried to stop this loan and were removed to bring in UBA Sani who approved it

Senators from your state must approve foreign loans before the senate will give you the go ahead

Don’t let other people’s perception affect you
Light skin isn’t more beautiful it’s just society
Two kids of different colors don’t care about the difference until they begin to grow and hear things like what you just heard
Also if you live abroad, rich white young women and older women who don’t have to please society have a preference for black men. Adele. Kardashians. A good number of the top ladies do. For older women they even travel to Jamaica or places in Africa like Gambia for blacks

The naira has appreciated to the dollar
It’s now 1200 plus officially
A flight to Saudi should not be more than 2000 dollars max or 2.4m
Let’s say hotel and fees should be 2000 dollars. That’s 4.8 m naira total
So where is the rest of the money going to?

There’s a problem with this list
Only one university in the northwest admits nearly 300 and most of them from the north
The same university has Indians and foreigners almost every year. So there’s something wrong with this source of data

It is not correct

Kelklein:
Even a child knows that whatever the CBN is doing can't last if the fiscal side are not doing anything or continues their profligacy and recklessness.

Economy is not run this way.. the current government is doing exactly what the Buhari government did.. showing that we haven't changed our ways. You can't leave only the CBN to be supporting the Economy while all you all do is pad budget, steal and stash money away especially the governors.. no productions or value-added production go on in any state in Nigeria... everyone just wait to get the money and stash it away..

Whatever the CBN is doing right now is like putting a BandAid on a sore... the bleeding would stop but only temporarily.. the ideal thing is to apply Antibiotics (production)..

When I see a comment along the lines of my thought I just let that one do the talking

This summarizes the issues
